3 questions have been answered:

Question: I'm chemically sensitive, if you are familiar with this, do you know if this nail polish would be safe for me? Meaning would it possibly not cause reactions? I understand you couldn't guarantee no reaction as everyone is different, but perhaps you know other Multiple Chemically Sensitive people that have tried this?
It's usually the odors that affect people or the absorption in to the body that's the annoyance.See Answer ▾Hide Answer ▴Cheryl(Seattle, Washigton)

Answer: We own a natural salon in which we cater to individuals with varying allergies and health conditions that prevent them from going to other nail salons. Therefore you would most likely not have a reaction to the formula used in our polish and organic remover.Stephanie,

Qualities

The product or its components can be broken down by natural forces into the simplest possible molecules under commonly found conditions and in a reasonable length of time.

Did you know?

For something to be considered biodegradable it must completely break down and return to nature in a reasonably short time.

The difference between biodegradable and compostable items is that when the latter breaks down it turns into compost, which can provide valuable nutrients to the soil.

Different materials take different periods of time to biodegrade. Paper could take 2 to 5 weeks while plastic might take 5 years. Or even 100 years!

There is now an array of biodegradable plastics on the market, including PLA. But not all bio-based plastics biodegrade.

Just because something is biodegradable doesn’t mean it’s good. Some things that break down are hazardous.

Locally Sourced ▸

x

Materials, ingredients, or products originating from local sources relatively close to where they’re manufactured and sold (approximately 200 miles).

Did you know?

Everyone has a different definition of what local—or even hyper local!—means. But most agree that in order to be considered local, food needs to be grown less than 200 miles of its destination.

Local food has inspired the term locavore, a person who only eats local food.

Local doesn’t mean organic or even sustainably grown, and there is no third party certifier of local food.

Locavores choose to eat local in order to cut down on carbon emissions from long-haul transportation and to support a local food shed, farmers, and small businesses.

Cruelty Free ▸

x

Generally indicates that no animal testing has been conducted for the product or its ingredients by the manufacturer, its laboratories, or its suppliers. Leaping Bunny also offers cruelty-free certification.

Did you know?

A little hopping bunny on a label means it has been third-party certified cruelty-free. This indicates there has been no testing on animals and no animals were harmed in making the product.

Cruelty-free and vegan are not the same; vegan is an unregulated claim suggesting no animal byproducts are in the product. Cruelty-free covers animal testing.

The European Union has a ban on animal testing (the first stage of which took effect in 2009, the next phase is due in 2013). We have no similar ban in the United States.

Phthalate Free ▸

x

No phthalates, chemicals used as solvents, scent carriers, and plasticizers, linked to endocrine disruption, cancer, reproductive and other disorders.

Did you know?

Phthalates are actually easy to pronounce (THAL-ates) but can be hard to avoid. They’re common in soft plastics, synthetic fragrances, and conventional personal care items like nail polish. Vinyl items like toys and shower curtains like can contain up to 40% phthalates by weight!

They’re worth trying to avoid as they’ve been linked to cancer, reproductive and developmental disorders, and organ and nervous system damage.

Like many chemicals, phthalates can easily escape from whatever they’re in. When they do, they wind up in our bodies, where they resist decay and accumulate over time. The more we encounter, the more we get stuck with.

Studies show that virtually every single man, woman, and child in America has phthalates in their body today.

Reviews

This is a great brand of nail polish. They have amazing colors without the heavy chemical smell of basic drugstore brands. They seem to hold up well after days of typing away at work as well. :-)

"Beautiful color! "
— Marcela

This was my first time trying an organic nail polish. I'm glad I did. I was able to tell the difference right after I open the bottle. The smell is very subtle compare to regular polish, it is very easy to apply, the color is bright and it lasted longer than any other polish I've had. The only thing is, if you want a deeper color, it will be best to apply 3 coats this why I gave it 4 stars. More (+)

(I've found that when you use the base coat, polish and dry coat, from the same brand, polish will dry faster, look shinier and last longer). I also purchased the Nail polish remover and I love it. This shade is my favorite so far. Less (-)
